Mark Yaffe, avid coin collector and co-founder of National Gold Exchange, faces losing his enterprise’s inventory as well as his personal property. Sovereign Bank has demanded immediate repayment of its more than $35 million loan amid doubts of the store’s viability and a tip from a Florida attorney accusing Yaffe of using assets belonging to his business to complete the construction of his home. According to an article in the St. Petersburg Times , Yaffe designed his 29,000-square-foot dream house in part to display his vast and varied collection of all things shiny. Yaffe, 49, has a collection valued at more than $5 million that includes coins, music boxes, pianos, organs and antique automata dolls (one of the dolls is nearly 250 years old). Sovereign Bank won court permission in late July to recover the collateral that secures its loan to National Gold. National Gold, the world’s largest gold wholesaler, filed for Chapter 11 protection shortly thereafter. The filing was too late to protect it from the sheriff who was sent to claim property and witnessed coins being moved from the store into waiting cars. After a review of the inventory and books, Sovereign is crying fraud. It’s asking the court for permission to hold onto the collateral it has already seized. National Gold is now saying the bank plans to seize property from Yaffe’s mock 17th century English country manor located in the swank Tampa community of Avila. It is the very location for which lawyer-turned-tipster claims Yaffe sold $12 million to $15 million of inventory.
